We knew GT5 was going to sell well at launch, but those expecting Halo and Call of Duty numbers are going to be very disappointed.

Care to tell who some of those people might be because I don't remember people saying GT5 will sell 4 Mil Week 1 at least...

Prediction range average from users here was about 1.5 Mil to 2.5 Mil for First Week if my memory serves correct. Correct me if I'm wrong of course.

I'm about to make the GT5 Sales Predictions Discussion thread....you'll be able to see everyones prediction in there.

Cool.

I just don't think anyone would and should be disappointed by these numbers.

The game will have terrible legs in every region that we get official numbers from on a constant basis (america, Japan). It will only have "great legs" where we never get oficial numbers and anybody can claim anything (europe) plus sony will be giving the game away for free through bundling.

Japan's second week numbers will be a good indication for this games "great" legs.

Even with the difficulty in tracking some parts of EMEAA I can't see how Japan would be the better indication for GT5's legs. The weekly Pal Charts thread will probably be a better indication.

Japan is never a good indication for any games legs ever. It will see great throughout the holidays and in to 2011 in NA and Europe.

We'get NPD numbers and we'll see its legs in America too , though i predict that after the December NPD it will be "Japan and The U.S is never a good indicator about legs , it's all about Finland and Spain and Italy " !!!

Well Europe is by far GT biggest market... but it will still sell millions in NA... NPD only give out a top 10 list of software with no numbers now (unless you pay) so there pretty useless now.

When I made the last update this was the average

Week 1 Average -- 2.56 Million

LTD Average -- 9.34 Million

But after that around 15 more people predicted so averages will change....anyway updating everything then making a discussion thread....the predictions thread itself is too cluttered now!

All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

AMAZING SALES!

Yeah, guess I didn't put enough caps in the title :(

Bet with Dr.A.Peter.Nintendo that Super Mario Galaxy 2 won't sell 15 million copies up to six months after it's release, the winner will get Avatar control for a week and signature control for a month.
